Your cart is empty.This curly soft maple is highly figured with tiger-striped rays running perpendicular to the grain pattern. Along with the wood's light color, this striping lends a shimmering quality to the lumber. Even unfinished, the wood has a very pleasing interaction with light. It is no surprise, then, that curly maple has become a woodworker's favorite for accents, specialty furniture, musical instruments, and more. To make the figure in this curly maple really "pop", we recommend using an oil product (tung, linseed, etc.), as opposed to a stain. If a lacquer or urethane finish is necessary, adding a coat or two of clear wax-free shellac before the final finishing will ensure that the figure stands out.

The last 2" had obvious snipe so wasn't the actual thickness the entire piece. I won't be purchasing again. 2 weeks later and still waiting on customer service on what I'm supposed to do with this. Warped...very meh. Ordered a different piece from another company that is far superior

Sure it’s S4S, but it’s also cupped, bowed and twisted like you wouldn’t believe. By the time I got done flattening it, it would be 1/8”. Worthless.

Very nice wood. Excellent grain. This is my third order. I use the 1/2" in band saw boxes and stabilize the 3/8" and use as knife scales.Will be ordering more.
